Defense provides anchor for team

By Zack Eldridge · Thursday, Oct. 23,2003 1:50 a.m.

The IU defense had a 0.77 goals against average in 2002, a mark that ranked 15th nationally. This season, it has been much of the same. The stifling IU defense and IU goalkeeper are allowing a mere 0.71 goals per game, a mark that ranks first in the conference.
